>"Andrew, what are you doing, man?!"
>"I'll kill you!"
And he just nods and continues like nothing happened. What the FRICK is that? The ending was completely ruined by this crap.

You’re that moronic?? You got filtered by this? The entire fricking film is about him wanting to be the best, Simmons seeing his potential but potential is nothing will NEVER make you the best. He repeatedly says, “earn it Neiman”. Then at the most pivotal, embarrassing, crushing moment hes presented, Neiman transcends his potential and fricking crushed it instead of being crushed by it.
Still doesn't explain why the frick Andrew said that he was going to kill his teacher; an act that was totally out of character for him.
He was in the zone, he was just saying don't frick with him. It wasn't a threat it was a warning.
>but potential is nothing will NEVER make you the best
First time I saw this I thought the ending was a fever dream after he got hit by the car. And this big finale of him owning his director was a him slowly dying with morphine delusions in a hospital bed
Holy reddit. Kys.
I legit mistook Miles Teller for Phoebe Waller Bridge.
Is this at the end of the movie? He said, "I'll cue you in."
pretty sure its just, "i'll cue you"
He said "I'll que you", as in he'll let the director know when the rest of the band can join in. Stick to disney movies you fricking moron
How can such a mediocre movie have an absolute 10/10 ending it boggles my mind
>drives countless kids to suicide or lifelong mental trauma
>all so they can make a generic forgettable "bing bang diggity doo" that'll hit top 40 before the entire planet gets sick of it after 2 days
His dad’s reaction is the most kino part
His dad actually has 0 character arc, he's not proud before and he's not proud then, he's just scared for his son and his obsession once he sees how much it's consuming him.
Why are parents like this?
frick DADS. DADS just mess up their kids life. usually when someone isn't as successful or happy or have as much as they could, the blame could all rightly be placed on the DAD. and its probably only the person's fault so much in that they listened to their DUMB DAD too much
>DAD DAD DAD DAD
>Dude every character needs an arch!!
Peak midwit
not every character needs an arc, the father exists solely as a constant to measure nieman's character arc against
>he's not proud before and he's not proud then, he's just scared for his son and his obsession once he sees how much it's consuming him.
that's literally the point. the finale of whiplash isn't a happy ending, andrew has finally committed to casting aside being traditionally happy to be great. his life will most likely be miserable and because of that he will die in his mid 30s due to drug overdose like he says at the dinner scene but in exchange he will get to reach heights nobody else can.
the father's reaction is supposed to signal to the audience that andrew has embraced something that's ultimately twisted and unhealthy.
I'll just say it, the reason I'm so bitter about it is my parents drove me to be so motivated but have never seemed to care about anything I actually achieve.
The diner scene makes me think maybe his family is the same way.
If Nieman is anything like me he wouldn't be happy anyways, that greatness is the only thing he can hope for.
>Why are parents like this?
why do you let fake Hollywood movies influence your perception of true reality? youre a literal brainlet NPC Black personcattle moron dont reply
I mean, my parents were like that. I'm talking about the depiction, that behaviour actually happens. I don't believe the father is a real person.
he doesn't say that
great bait OP, you got the morons to respond. enjoy your (you)s
i was violently fapping one day and then my imaginary gf saw me and she asked WHAT THE FRICK ARE YOU DOING and i told her I'LL CUE YOU IN
Whiplash is an overacted cliche sports movie for hipsters.
Honestly, even if he had said I'll kill you, just walking away in amusement is pretty in character for Fletcher.
>MILK THE c**t!
>Noooo! Don't bring out the absolute best in an aspiring young musician, don't give him the strength and motivation to achieve perfection in one of the most difficult mediums in all of music! Noooo!
So their drummer just leaves the concert. They don't have a backup. How do they finish if Andrew didn't come back?
this webm is disgusting, even moreso when you learn what is actually happening.
The frick is happening here
seriously, what the hell is this
i think it's a parasite jumping from one host body to another
it's some chink putting his hands inside dead animals and playing with them.
it's a fake video that some moron made, he's pushing the eel or worm or whatever from one fish to another to make a weird video and bait morons
google eel going between fish mouths or something
it's an indian guy who makes a bunch of weird videos like this fricking around with dead animals
>indian guy who makes a bunch of weird videos like this fricking around with dead animals
why are indians like this bros
why did he give it to neiman? you give a calculator to a moron and he's gonna try to turn on a tv with it.
The point is that Andrew takes the reigns and starts dictating the pace of the band instead of lettinf Fletcher tell him what to do, he doesn't give a frick what Fletcher says because as long as they're on stage he won't do shit. It's a moment where Andrew transcends the reality of his life to reach his full potential as a musician, and Fletcher let's him do it because he realizes his petty revenge scheme ultimately gave him what he wanted, someone who could be the next Charlie Parker. What was unclear about that
>you're the 30th reply
>you will NEVER be in screencaps
I will say I sympathized with Andrew the moment he made a passing, jokey remark and everybody looked at him like he just said he fricked a dead body or something, the people at that table were huge c**ts who couldn't even pretend to be interested in his minor accomplishments
his extended family were definitely condescending c**ts. they absolutely looked down on andrew as less of a man because their kids played sports (even though they were D3 athletes and not even close to the level of accomplishment andrew is at by going to the best music school)
his father though I don't think was like that. he was shown to be a caring and supportive father, he even was shown to be extra nurturing after andrew is thrown out of the school, bringing him food and doing his laundry, etc.
his extended family yeah are shitbags as I mentioned above.
It's not like he wasn't condescending either. He was just butthurt no one cares about jazz drumming, no matter how good he was.
so what would happen if every musician on stage decided to have their turn at a "protagonist" moment and just slapped away at their chellos and triangles aimlessly for 15 minutes each like neiman?
That concert would have gone down in history as the greatest jazz performance EVER.
what was his problem?
Lost the folder, and (more importantly) doesn't have the music memorized
Neiman lost the folder
they weren't serving cosmopolitans and baked alaska
